Poetic T May 2017
Beauty woven within a blossom of elegant
                                                              spines,
fevered upon landscapes of humidity.
Treasures of the
                       desert locked within ,
moistures lingering within a sealed prison
Nichole Getz Apr 2017
Sitting up here, way up here, I feel okay

With the room expanding high up to where I can barely see the roof,

The long window to the left of me is not that intimidating

Frightening me with the open space that I could easily fall out of

And the locked door to the right of me does not make me feel like an outsider

Instead, the window is welcoming me to fly, to leap out and spread my arms as if I am a bird

While the door reminds me that I am not locked out, but I am locked in

Searching for a way that I can escape this quiet sanction that causes chaos in my mind
I wrote this when I was feeling sad
Wendell A Brown Jan 2017
The many moments we spend together
Shall never find themselves replaced
Each second we will find it to be true
From our hearts, they will never escape

All the moments are securely deposited
In their beautiful entirety each day
Like the memory banks of our computers
To replay over again while one is away

Being away from the other brings sadness
Making the hours of a day seem like years
And it’s during those times we are apart
We might even find we shed lonely tears

For in this world, we can never be assured
How long the time we have together might be
The moment might come when we’re left alone
With only a closet full of tender memories

Let’s choose to live our lives to the fullest
Never letting a moment of time to slip away
Without placing a lovely image of our true love
Deep inside our hearts treasure chest to stay.
We should always seek to embrace lasting memories in our lives each day, especially with those whom we share unconditional and genuine love!

Sometimes I seek the solitude of a quiet room, just to hear my mind speak aloud. To question all that I've built in this world, and whether or not I am allowed, to act on it.

Should you ever find me doing this, don't judge me for it, and don't question it.

Because believe me if I knew why my mind requires this. I wouldn't have to close the door, or lock myself externally in.

I guess sometimes what is inside, is not always willing to coincide, with what the heart tries to keep alive. And this is why sometimes I hide.

In order to unlock the locked away inside.
Troof!

Her peace lies locked in the cage of his chest
Soft murmurs of life in motion state of his rest

Separate the pollen from the bees and,
Trouble on your mind for the long run,
The intensity is growing don't know if
You could stand,
Looking for your troubles ? Well here
They come,
I hope you know I'm planning just to
Take a stand,
Getting your pride smashed isn't a lot of
Fun,
Better be greatful you weren't born in a
Can,
If the flying ******* wanna talk,
Get the bread crumbs,
Practically a woman's world just remain
Being a man,
Most people nowadays solve problems with
Guns,
And most days I don't really understand,

/

I said it's good  ......
To be locked......
In your love.....
I wish you well.....
On your travels...
Cry like a dove....
There's no way..
I could say...
All I want...
Yes they fly...
All away...
From a single stomp....

All you've ever asked for was a silent night,
With unholy antics to feed the dead,
All I ever wanted was to see a tear but not quite,
And it was all in my head,
You could make a blind man
See,
You could make a shy man
Speak,
In the night serving the unholy beast,
You're making me,
Yeah your making me,

All I really wanted was a night in bed, to rest,
I pack my soul up,
Get up,
And go,
This would be the night that you are at your
Best,
but your spirit is feeling old,
You could bring back senses
Of smell,
You can make 12 men melt,
In the night serving the unholy beast,
You're melting me,
Yeah your loving me.
